Belk Theatre

Belk Theatre Charlotte Reviews

The Belk Theatre is a perfect venue for the incredible plays that come to life on it's stage. I have taken groups of middle school and high school students to the Belk and every single one of them had a blast. It's a great place to take a date if you want to dress up for a night on the town or you can wear office/casual clothes to enjoy a relaxing evening with friends and family. A variety of performances are hosted at the Belk so make sure you check the entire date....and don't get confused by the other theatres/shows associated with the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center. The Belk and Booth Playhouse are both at the same address! Once you make it inside the front door, there are plenty of friendly employees directing traffic. Although the Belk Theatre is larger than Booth Playhouse, you will have a great view even if you opt for the cheapest tickets. In fact, my group could not have been happier with their "birds eye view." And no...from the upper level the actors do NOT look like tiny moving specks on stage, but if at all possible look for center stage seats! Obviously, food at the theatre can be quite expensive, but there are plenty of cafes and family restaraunts on the same block. Each year I take a group of students to Discovery Place (an incredible hands-on science museum) which is within a short walking distance of the Belk Theatre...then we head over to Fuel Pizza to grab dinner before the evening performance! If you are in the area and have no definite plans, try walking past the theatre because you will often see people selling tickets for extremely cheap prices if someone in their group did not show. If you love the arts as much as I do...you should definitely take advantage of the Belk Theatre while you are in town!!!
